Quarter-Final: Sweden v England

Gary Lineker presents live coverage of the World Cup quarter-final between Sweden and England at the Samara Arena, with commentary by Guy Mowbray and Martin Keown.

Gary Lineker presents live coverage of England's World Cup quarter-final against Sweden. Victory would see the Three Lions reach the semi-finals for the first time since 1990.

Gareth Southgate's side defeated Colombia on penalties in the last round to win their first ever shoot-out at the World Cup, and hopes are high they can carry that momentum into this game in Samara. Captain and golden boot contender Harry Kane has already netted six times at this tournament, and one more would see him set a new record for most goals at a single World Cup by an Englishman.

The Swedes have been one of the surprise packages in Russia, and they should prove tough opponents. They defeated both France and Italy in qualifying and beat Switzerland in the last round to reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 1994. Winger Emil Forsberg scored the only goal against the Swiss and is arguably their most dangerous player.

Analysis comes from Alan Shearer, Rio Ferdinand and Jurgen Klinsmann, with commentary by Guy Mowbray and Martin Keown.
